Chinese Keys is a tropical perennial growing to 50 - 70cm high. The leaves die back in frost.
It is the swollen roots that are sought after in this species - not the rhizome. The succulent roots are used to flavour many kinds of food, either added in raw or cooked. They are also sold in a pickled form in Indonesia & Thailand. Young leaves & shoots are also eaten #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #chinesekeys
